I would like to say that I am serenely floating through the festive preparations like a floating focused goddess but that is so far from the truth I want to curl up and sleep for a few days. I've been working, decorating and shopping like a whirling dervish. I finally got to print my seasonal greetings cards late last night filling the house with the heady smell of flouro ink (circa 1980). It was a lovely few hours of production and I dreamed that I could do that all the time in a little cottage by the sea with only the wind and rain for company and a few squealing seagulls, a radio and a pot of finest printer's tea. Note how my dreams are of escape and isolation? My co-designer has gone a.w.o.l so I can't offer to send her some of the cards so if any of my dearly beloved readers would like a card from me then just email me your address and I will send you one with love. I hope you are all feeling organised, rested and heading towards the holidays with gusto. I've a while to go yet.
Louise! you lovely lovely thoughtful organised sweet person! (i should make that into a list)! the card arrived today! i was so touched and delighted really.
*thank you*
i'm so embarrassed, i haven't sent a *single* card this year.
I am a book artist living in the UK. This blog is a peek at my creative endeavours, my travel diaries, life and work at home which is a little house snuggled behind a huge hedge on a suburban street in a market town in England.

I am, of course, always only an email away to ask questions, permissions etc and I might look and sound like a grumpy cow most of the time but I'm not, it's just that my face is sagging.
